I think the problem with GIAC is a lack of support in the UK.


Luckily I have Steve and Statllers. :happy2: there are a few GIAC dealers including Regal down your way Ian.

Time to knock 5kg a corner off the car.

My old favourite, the Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2's in Gloss Black to match the gloss black detailing on the car.

18 x 8 ET45.

Also sticking with 235/40/18 tyres

 :drool:

Sweeeeeeeeet !!  :congrats:

You need V-box again then too !!!

Yep, just don't break it by entering warp speed in the Porsche. If you crack 6's to 100 I'll get the Costas in next time I'm down :happy2:

I had the giac maps for over a year. I wasn't a fan of the stage 1 map but when it went to giac stage 2+ equivalent I actually preferred it to revo, very very linear and really nice to drive ! :happy2:

Are 235s standard on the R ?

My R came with the 19" x 8" wheels with 235/35/19 tyres. The 235/40/18 is actually closer to the 19" tyres rolling circumference than the standard 225/40/18 tyre. :happy2:

Cheers Luke.

I'm astonished just how fast the R is with a relatively low bolt-on count and a couple of decent maps. :happy2:

Rant time..... :fighting2:

Ordered a set of alloys and Parcelforce were due to deliver them.

The company I bought them off gave me tracking numbers and I duly tracked them....

Stayed in all morning on Monday.....went to work at 1pm...........delivery attempted at 2pm :fighting:
e-mailed them Monday night after getting home from work to attempt to get them delivered Tuesday morning
Stayed in all Tuesday morning.....went to work for 1pm.....delivery attempted at 15.39  :fighting:

Now here's the kicker!

Goes back on the tracking site and it says "Delivery attempted - refused by addressee"  :surprised: :fighting2:

Then "Returned to Sender" :fighting2: :fighting:

How can I refuse delivery when there was no-one in the house?  All I could think is that they tried handing them to a neighbour, but both my neighbours were out too! so did they REALLY attempt delivery or did they just miss me out and click on the wrong option on their little box? I suspect that they didn't attempt delivery as I didn't even get a slip on the second attempt.

Anyway I phoned the depot this morning at 08.30 and they said that the parcels had already been sent back to the sender :fighting2:

So now I've had to phone the original company to tell them what a set of muppets their carrier is and re-arrange delivery. Luckily they deal with this cr4p all the time and agreed to re-send them at their cost. :congrats:

Now all I have to do is waste another day waiting for delivery :sad1:

Rant over!.....and relax! :smiley:
